Football practice always started with “warm up drills”, then moved into contact drills (knocking each other down). After that there were the skill sessions of learning plays & moves…learning what to do, when & how. Then it was gut-check time. We would run wind sprints up and down the field.

“What’s The Answer?”
There I sat…It was the semester test in 9th grade algebra with 10 minutes before the bell and my test paper was almost empty. I didn’t then, nor do I now understand why I need letters to solve a math problem. But here I was. I needed answers. By the time my buddy handed me …
“WHOA Up There!”
I could not find the picture of me on my horse, the Old Mare. Yep, that was her name. I was around 7 when I saddled her up. In the afternoons I would come home from school and ride in the pastures & such. Being young I didn’t know all the horse tricks… like how …

“I’ve Got A Secret!”
The sooner a person learns, “Don’t ask why, just do as you’re told,” in basic training the better. I was the only one in our group told to report to this specific room. When the sergeant shut the door, it was all business. He told us to fill out the forms of everywhere we had …

Do You Ever Feel Insignificant?
When I was growing up there were the football stars, the class Valedictorians, you know the people everyone wanted to be around. At work people want to be around the high producers, the people of influence. We even see this in church where people are drawn to the Bible scholars & powerful prayers. In all …
